Question Google phone/dialer - Nubia Red Magic 7

Hello friends, I am considering to buy Redmagic 7 and wanted to know if anyone is using Google dialer with it. Last time I checked was for Redmagic 6S and Google phone didn't produce a ring when a call was received. Is it still the same? The reason I am asking is, Google phone is kind of important for me as it has automatic spam blocking and nearby places functions.

Greetings,
I just installed now and tried it out, I called myself and the sound/vibration was working.

huge thanks for trying it out, it was almost the most important downside for me. Did you make the Google Dialer default app, or is it just standard install?

I've got the phone a week ago and have been using nothing but the Google dialer as the default dialer since first boot.

Did you change both the Phone and Call apps to Google Dialer in Default app settings? Do you also use Google Contacts app, does it sync?

Yes, I deleted the stock app just to be sure, and it was working fine (as default, since it was the only app for calls) Tbh I forgot about Contacts app, just installed and... well, what cannot work here XD? But all in all, it's all fine

[Q] change default phone app

How do I change the default phone app to dialerPro ? When I click on a missed call icon in notification bar, it opens up in the default phone app. When I first clicked it it ask me which app to open - I chose dialerOne and checked "always use this", but it opened in the phone app instead.
I tried to clear defaults in application settings, but it says "no defaults are set"
So any ideas ?
Anyone tried to remove the default phone app ?
So I have to try it on my own, then ? Oh, man...

I've read somewhere that it was impossible on froyo to replace the default phone app, might have been on the DialerOne's description
So anyone can tell me how to make dialerOne the default dialer ?
When I force-close it, I can't make calls, and there are no defaults set for it.

Spot on mate. But somebody in Azure thread made DialerOne using the method used by grandioso and it works. I tried it myself but was unsuccessful.

[Q] Go Contacts missed call notification

I'm using Go Contacts as my default call app. Although whenever I get a missed call the notification doesn't disapear from the bar.
I need to open the main Contacts Samsung app for it to disappear or clear the bar.
I don't seem to find any configurations to change this.

I had the same issue with my old desire, not sure if go can't get the correct 'rights' or something?

bump... still no workaround for this?
I use Go SMS not Go Contacts so can't say i have this problem.
Best thing is to send an email directly to the developer regarding this, actually if you do a search there is a massive thread relating to GO and their various apps on XDA although you'd probably be better off just emailing the dev.

I have the same problem on Desire, redux2
Any suggestion?
Same here on HTC Desire S. It is really annoying.
Maybe this is the problem:
Since Android 2.3, Google prohibited third party application (i.e. non-system app) to make use of MODIFY_PHONE_STATE permission. One of the consequences is that all 3rd party phone dialer application can no longer clear missed call icon at notification bar. (Even at Android 2.2 or older, we need undocumented API to do so)

Same here with my unrooted HTC Desire HD (Ace). Unfortunately the workaround with NotiGo does only work on rooted phones.
This is a shame for Android...

contacts synchronization issue after jb upgrade

Hi guys! i Have just upgraded my gsm razr xt910 to official jb (982.124.14.retail.en.eu )
everything's ok but i have a "problem" (if i can call it in this way)
everytime i turn on my phone i see in the notification bar the voice "synchronizing contacts between sim card and phone" (those are not the real words, it's my traslation from italian ) this also happens when i set airplane mode and when i suddenly disable it..
as i said before, this is not a real problem, because this synchronization lasts a few minutes and then it turns off, but i want to disable it because it's useless..and i even want to now if i'm the only one who has this problem
thank you guys !
Hi, if you are not rooted, You will not be able to shut it down.
Can I ask? What colour is Your "people" (contacts app)? Is it white?

i remember than in ics there was a process who asked you to synchronize only if it finds new contacts in the sim ..not every moment like the new one

I noticed the same. I suppose it is syncing contacts with Google Gmail??
You can disable sync when you open Contacts. Choose settings and Accounts. There is an option to disable auto-sync.
However, I did not try this, so I am not sure.

AT&T messaging app?

AT&T messaging app suddenly appeared today and took over my phone. I used Default App Manager to change back to the default texting app but the AT&T app still catches the incoming alerts.
First off...what in the world.....? And second, how do I rid my phone of it/never see it again?
Thanks
I called them and got them to disable it. Apparently they've been getting pissed off calls about this all day. Way to FAIL AT&T...

Yep. But they also needed to disable something from their end (scrub it from account).

That's odd, I have an HTC One and for a while I used the stock ROM that came from AT&T and never had that issue. This is why I don't like carrier bloatware lol.
Mine was even worse, all of the sudden I had 8, yes, eight icons on my home screen. I thought for sure something had gone terribly wrong, ATT couldn't screw up that bad.
I'm going to make a quick list of useful apps that AT&T provides:

I know what you mean. I wish HTC would have stock pop up notifications and a bit more customization to their messaging app.

The same thing just happened to my phone over the weekend. You can go into the settings and disable it but the better way is to call att customer care. They know of the problem and they have to remove it from the billing on you phone. After they do that, go to settings and press uninstall. It will uninstall all the updates to the app and then you will get a message stating that all messages will be handled by their default apps again.
I think it was an update to AT&T's "Visual Voicemail" app which was a really handy little program that I liked to use, but now with all the extra features its a pain in the butt!

Has anyone been able to get the stock Android Dialer installed?

Google Play store says it's not compatible; I've tried various APKs and when I go to install they also say incompatible.
That sucks. What might be the cause? I know the S8 can install it.
I'm also having the same issue... The LG phone app is horrendous

This is the dialer I'm using...https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...-7-0-140861421-nonnexus-android-apk-download/
When you go to the link, scroll down to "Download APK". Don't install a newer version, because it probably won't work. Or if you do and it does work, let me know.
It's the stock Google dialer, and everything works. I've used it on several phones lately. When you install it, make sure and go to your settings menu, then apps, then Configure apps, and then set the new dialer to be your default phone app. Easy as pie

As per the notes on the thread, this older version is the only one that fully works on Non-Nexus devices. The newer patched versions may install but are often buggy and lack the necessary framework for spam call rejection and other features.
oh wow...i didn't realize the dialer required framework and such to use those features. kind of second guessing my ordering of the V30 now...
Perhaps this

Does your dialer have the voicemail tab? I'm on T-Mobile and have to use T-Mobile's Visual Voicemail app on my unlocked phone. I couldn't get the voicemail tab to show up and there was nothing in the settings that could activate it. I tried a SIM card pulling trick I saw on Reddit but that didn't do it either. Thanks!

I can check when I get home tonight. I’m using my iPhone right now. I’ll let you know later.
Edit...I'm home now and looking at my V30 with the Google dialer, and I don't see a voicemail tab anywhere.
How did you enable call screen or dialing screen to stock one? On my v30 only the dialer screen showsup and the calling screen is LG one.

You have to ensure that the Google Phone app is actually properly set as your default Dialer/Phone app. I had a similar problem until I did that. Under settings, go to apps and then click on "Configure apps" under the three dot overflow menu on the top right. Make sure the correct app is listed under "Phone app".

Been searching for days to find an apk that works on my LG V20, and this works perfectly - even location search.
